When we were in Kilmartin last year we looked at the ancient Campbell of Duntrune gravestones in the churchyard across the road from the Kilmartin Inn. It had special significance for us because one of the earliest settlers in the Canberra district was Robert Campbell of Duntroon. His homestead is now the officers' mess of the Royal Military College Duntroon, which trains officers for the Australian Army. Kilmartin is also significant to us because my wife's family were McNeills from Colonsay and Kintyre.
As instigator of the University of Glasgow survey of the Callanish Stone Circle complex in 1973 I, too, have an interest in Scottish prehistory, anciently of global significance. No room here, but may I suggest kindred sleuths check out a) the 5000 year-old name-title 'Catti' as in Katti Ku, the old capital of Shetland (Ceti-land), ancient sumerian for 'City of the Katti'; and b) Ptolemy's legendary 'Cattigara', indo-sumerian (my description) for Fortress of the Catti, which I assert is on the coastal site of Chan Chan, Peru. Of 29 consecutive Pictish kings bearing the name Brude, 14 had the appendix 'Ur', the sumerian - and magyar - for Lord. The so-called lost Pictish tribes of Scotland, the Sumertae, Venicones, Carenni, Katoni, Gotodini, Mayatae and Chaldoni, are easily discovered when read more correctly as Sumerians, Phoenicians, Carians, Catti, Gotts, Magi-Ayars and Chaldeans. As for Stonehenge, try investigating it as 'Isten Henger', Magyar for Cylinder - or Circle - of God!
